Naughty Abigail

Aurora woke up to the soft rays of morning light peeking through the sheer curtains. Stretching her limbs, she sighed, already feeling the emptiness of Xander's absence. She missed waking up to his warm presence beside her.

Shaking off the thought, she got out of bed, heading straight for the bathroom. After brushing her teeth and washing her face, she pulled on a pastel pink matching gym outfit, tied her hair into a loose ponytail, and slipped on her white running shoes.

A slow morning jog seemed like the perfect way to clear her mind.

Stepping outside, Aurora inhaled the fresh morning air as she started a light run around the estate, keeping her pace steady. The rhythmic pounding of her feet against the pavement grounded her thoughts.

When she finally returned, slightly breathless, Nene was already waiting for her at the entrance with a towel in hand.

"Good morning, Ma'am," Nene greeted, passing her the towel.
